Top 5 quotes from Martin Luther King Jr.
"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
"Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right."
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
